Wow! with RC2 I didn't need my motherboard's driver to see my Raid Drives in the installation, and the installation process was a bit faster too.

Hey,

this is a big thread so I haven't bothered reading every page. Im trying to find out how stable is Vista RC2? How far along is it?

Last time I used it, it crashed all the time, couldn't install almoast anything, and so on.

Thanks.

Short version,

Very stable... i actually installed it on my main desktop for the first time ever (usually just test on my laptop)

Very quick and very responsive. It seems to be as quick as XP at this point (maybe I am making that up...)

I have only run into one program that will not install (Ultramon for dual monitor taskbars) ...otherwise everything is installing without a single problem :yes:

How do we uninstall it? I'm having lots of problems with it and XP doesn't appear anymore - I didn't upgrade, don't get me wrong on this.

How about you wait longer than 4 minutes next time before you post again, smart guy :blink: :angry:

Download this, install it. It gives you an option to uninstall the Vista bootloader...

My my, so much has happen in my absence... :laugh: . Does anyone know any burner besides Nero 6 that can be used on Windows Vista Build 5728 as my Nero 6 can't burn my ISO at the moment. Would appreciate if someone could give a little help here. Thank you :yes: .

Just because it has a simple user interface for newbies doesn't mean it sucks. There's this ^^ that seems equivalent to third party firewalls.

Zonealarm is a great firewall, a few too many resources, but no-where near as much as norton crap. using nod32, zonealarm, spybot, adaware and you wont have any problems.

symantec antivirus for vista is on the net, prob your best bet for an antivirus at the moment until better more stable ones are released.

Dont make me laugh please...

I shudder at the thought that "testers" who should in theory know more than my mother about computers uses any of the rubbish you mention.

using nod32, zonealarm, spybot, adaware and you wont have any problems.

Classic...

Boot from your xp cd and enter in recovery console.

then try this:

1st - Fixboot

2nd - Fixmbr

3rd - Exit and Reboot

4st - Finally edit Boot.ini and delete line with "Longhorn" or "Vista" on it and delete the folder Vista resides in.

when in xp, delete the vista partition

Psykx, this thread is messed up so you're not alone. Post #555 is the last one that can be seen unless you reply.

I had that same trouble with the ATI driver on my 9800 Pro. It installed the non-wddm driver by default and I got that same strange blue screen ( not a BSOD) and a reboot. I had to manually change to the wddm driver in device manager but now I have no Aero.

i'm having the same problem with the nvidia drivers too. Currently the driver "installs" but doesn't work. Run dxdiag and you'll see it's not detecting a directx video card

Anyone having problems with Nvidia drivers? Crap support for Nvidia drives.... Crap.... It's like 52XX version all over again!!!

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

    • Hello, From looking at the screen shots in your motherboard's manual at https://endownload.colorful.cn/EnDownload/MotherBroard/2022/Intel 600/Manual/Intel 600 Series BIOS English/Intel 600 Series BIOS User Guide.pdf, you go to the ADVANCED option at the top of the BIOS (UEFI) menu, then select SECURITY in the list of options on the left.  From there  you can enable and set the Secure Boot mode.
